Would you go to prison for 10 years for $10,000,000?
How about 1 year for $1,000,000?
Wheres the cutoff?

Ive visited a prison once, the stories there are abslutely horrible. The are many group rapings that go on. As well as one poor soul who was tied down to his bed, and then lit on fire....

I'd try 2 years for 2 mill, whether or not I make it depends on the prison.

10 minutes for the fast food is the only option.

A better question would be how much would it cost for you to go to jail for x # of years. So heres mine how much could someone offer you that would convince you to spend 3 years in jail?

Depends on my age when I go, the older I get, the cheaper my price.

ESPECIALLY if I had a years heads up and an advance.

a Mil a year works out at $114/hr, every hour. i could cope with going to sleep and waking up 1000 better off, would offset much of the hardship. It really depends on the prison, and if the other prisoners found out how much i was getting paid!

I couldn't do any time. I've seen and heard so many terrible stories through some criminal justice classes that I am taking. 10 min. for big mac and coke is about all I'm willing to do.

I hear the ass pounding doesn't start for at least 30 minute so I'd be good.

Depending on the type of prison, I would likely do one year for one million. Also, the older I become the more willing I am sure I would be to do longer periods of time.

How about a summer for $250K?

Screw "a summer." How's about "a fall" or some less sweet season?
